Hello guys, My suggestion is try to go Mumbai or Delhi Consulate. In Channai Consulate they are issueing 221 g blue foams to maximum persons.

If any body going to Channai Consulate then take these documents compulsary,
1.wage reports.
2.Project details(roles and responsbilites )
3.Taxes.

I am waiting my required documents from my employer.

Can i drop once again my DS-156,DS-157 along with the required documents in VFS office ,please send me replay about this. I am waiting for your answers.

Thanks

Hi all,

I've attended the visa interview on Dec 1, 2006. I've been given a 221(G) blue form and was asked to submit

1) Tax Returns of the employer
2) Unemployment Wage Report
3) Notarized list of all employees along with salary details
4) Client Letter
5) Client Agreement
6) Complete itinerary of services
7) Details of internal project

My employer is at last giving me the client letter. I want to know if we have the client letter and client agreement, are other documents still required? My employer says they are not required.

Please help me in this regard.

Dear all,
First of all i would like to thank everybody who shared ur experience with us.This is the best website to get information regarding stamping.I would like to share my experience to all.

My interview is on 21st March 1:45PM and i was there around 12:45 and they allowed me inside the consulate around 1:30 and i went for security checking.After the checking i went inside a room where there are lot counters for checking the documents. I have been asked to sit and i was having one big file containing all the documents and a carry bag which contain my purse and marriage album.Apart from this i was having my interview letter, HDFC challan and Passport in my hand.I was waiting for my turn but at that time they asked me to go to another building.I went there and i saw the same counters there again.They asked me to sit in the chair but at that time i noticed that my passport was missing which made me too much tensed.I dony know what to do.I asked the guards and they asked me to check in the previous counter.I went there but it was not there.Whole crowd was watching me as everybody came to know that i lost my passport.I was embarrased but my full concentration was in searchng my passport.again i went to the another biulding and searched there.But the guards asked me to search outside the consulate.Thus was the biggest mistake i did.As i went outside i was not able to go inside again without my passport.I know very well it was inside.I requested the security to search my passport in those 2 places.I was standing in sun for nearly 30 min but they told finally it was not there.I was praying continuously.One guard came from inside and asked me what happened i told everything and he went inside to search again.Finally after 1 hour i got my passport which was there in 2nd building in the same chair where i sat.Again i went inside and finished all the formalities like doc checking and finger prints after that i was waiting for interview.The ladies who came along with me finished the interview and left the consulate .i was very much tensed and there were heavy rush on that day. took nearly 2 hours for me to get my chance.The girl who went before me has applied for f2 and she was also newly married and the asked her abt w2 as she told she dont have.They asked her pay stubs in which they have 600$ per week.Finally she got rejected which made me more tensed.I went for my interview.

VO: Good after noon mam.How are u(with smile)
Me: hello sir, good afternoon .Iam fine(with smile)
VO: Can i have that blue folder(Which contain my passport,Husbands I797,his passport copy)
Me: Of course
VO: He saw the date when he entered USA and he asked me whether i have W2 form
Me: I told yes and i gave that
VO: He saw that and he checked something in system and he said the magic word that my visa was apporoved
Me: Thank you sir

HUhhhhhhhhhhhhh.......

It was jus 2 minutes....for which i prepared a lot.But i would like to say everybody that please bring all the necessary documents.We dont have to worry and get tensed.Please please please keep your passport very safe.It was really a lucky day otherwise i would have left the consulate without my passport.

Best of luck to every body!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

Afroz u mentioned that u have mechanical engg degree. and if u have only 8 to 10 months of exp. u probably dont stand a gud chance of getting the visa. u shuld have atleast had 2 to 3 years of solid IT experience in a very big MNC here. computer science graduates like B techs or MCA's stand a gud chance even if they have 1 year of experience. if chennai consulate is no longer handling ur visa then there are 2 scenarios:

1. the best one is u might get a visa after a long long wait time or

2. the worst case is that ur petition might get null and void altogether. i am not discouraging u but i am letting u know what exactlt happens.

be positive although its hard on u but there is life beyond US visa also. so pray to Allah.

Max.
